How can a teen make money online?

I am giving this a try, Iâ€™m not sure if it is a â€œscamâ€¦â€ but I feel itâ€™s worth my $6 to find out. :)

Hello Fellow Money-Seekers,

As Seen On OPRAH & 20/20 - TURN $6 into $24600

Earn money using PAYPAL as seen on Oprah & 20/20
THE PAYPAL 6 DOLLAR MONEY-MAKING METHOD
AS SEEN ON OPRAH EARN HUGE $$$$$$$$

all you need is:
1) An email address
2) A PayPal account
3) $6.00

Ever since the internet became popular, the word "scam" has become a
daily term. I have never once tried any money making "system" outside
of this because of that very reason. However, after reading reports
on the validity and reputation of this money making system
(seen on Oprah, CNN, and other media forums)

I decided to give this one a shot... Especially since the so called "risk" is only $6.00.
I mean, for the chance, what a joke right?

Anyway, only hours after implementing this exact system I about fell out of my
chair as money ACTUALLY started rolling in. I couldn't believe it and for that reason,
I wrote this intro and became a believer in this system.

WHAT IS IT?
The idea is that of a system that takes advantage of the power of
compounding. And in a big way, let me tell you. First and foremost
understand that there are countless spin-offs of this system that try to make a
"quick buck" off of people. Long lists, the 5 & 10 dollar trees, the birthday systems, etc...

Those spin-offs do make money because of the ease of implementation of
this idea, but they do NOT use the compounding advantage. This system
is THE legit and profitable one.

Here is how it works... There is a list of 6 email Addresses (you'll see it as you read further). Each of these people has already taken part in this system. When someone new comes along (such as yourself) he/she removes #1 off of the list, moves the other five email addresses up one position (i.e. #6 goes to #5, #5 to #4, etc.), and places their PayPal email address in the #6 position.

This process is what develops the power of compounding. The bottom line
is this... Honesty and Integrity creates Profitability. Following this EXACT process is what creates the money, and that is why this system has been raved about in the media.

Altering the system creates weak results. The legality of this system comes from the idea that you are of course creating a mailing list, and a "service" is being provided (more on that later.) Now on to how your $6.00 creates BIG money...

INSTRUCTIONS:
STEP 1:
The first thing to do is highlight and SAVE this entire post in word
or notepad on your computer so you can come back to it later.

After that, if you are not already a PayPal user you need to go to the PayPal website at https://www.paypal.com/us/mrb/pal=6M64MY4Q2Z7L6 and SIGN UP.
If you want to be able to receive credit card payments from other people then you will need to
sign up for a PREMIER or BUSINESS account (not just a PERSONAL account).

This is highly recommended to allow others easy payment options. In order to place the initial $6 into your account, you will have to verify your bank account with PAYPAL (which may take a few
days). PAYPAL is 100% secure and is used by millions of people worldwide.

STEP 2:
Here is where the action occurs. The first thing to do is to send a
$1.00 payment to each of the 6 email addresses on the current list
from your PayPal account. To do this quickly and successfully, follow
these simple steps:

1. Login to PayPal and click on the "Send Money" tab near the top of
the screen
2. In the "Recipient's Email" field enter the email address
3. In the "Amount" field enter "1" (This is your $1.00 payment)
4. In the "Category" field select "Service" (Keeping it legal)
5. In the "Subject" field type "EMAIL LIST", and in the "NOTE" field
enter "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR EMAIL LIST". By doing this, you are
creating a service and maintaining the legality of the system by
"paying" for the service.
6. Finally, click on the "Continue" button to complete the payment.
Repeat these steps for each of the 6 email addresses. That's it! By
sending the $1.00 payment to each address, you are implementing the
compounding POWER of the system. You will reap what you sow!
Here is the current e-mail list:
**************************************...
The email list:
1. gh56money@gmail.com
2. residual2007@gmail.com
3. 20money07@gmail.com
4. paydc2008@gmail.com
5. griffindavid@hotmail.com
6. scott@mogren.com
**************************************...
STEP 2:
Now take the #1 email off of the list that you see above (from your
saved file), move the other addresses up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, etc.) and add YOUR email address (the one used for your PayPal account)
as number 6 on the list. This is the only part of the document that
should be changed. ** Make sure your email address is the one you
have registered with PayPal **

STEP 3:
Post your amended article to at least 200 newsgroups or message
boards. Keep in mind that there are tens of thousands of groups online!
All you need is 200, but remember the more you post the more money you make -
as well as everyone else on the list! I've began to see money roll in
before I even hit 100 posts, but try to hit around 200 to allow maximum exposure.
Use Netscape, Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, or
whatever your internet browser is to search for various news groups,
on-line forums, message boards, bulletin boards, chat sites,
discussions, discussion groups, on-line communities, etc. For example,

log on to any search engine like yahoo.com or google.com and type in
a subject like 'MILLIONAIRE MESSAGE BOARD', 'MONEY MAKING DISCUSSIONS',
'MONEY MAKING FORUMS', or 'BUSINESS MESSAGE BOARD', etc.
You will find thousands and thousands of message boards. Click them one by one and
you will find the option to post a new message. Fill in the subject which will be the header that everyone sees as they scroll through the list of postings in a particular group, and post the article with the NEW list of email addresses included.
THAT'S IT!!! All you have to do is jump to different newsgroups and post away. After you get the hang of it, it will take about 30 seconds for each newsgroup.

HOW THE MONEY WORKS:
When you post 200 messages in various forums, it is estimated that at
LEAST 15 people will respond and send you a $1.00 ($15.00). Those 15
will Post 200 Posts each and 225 people send you $1.00 ($225.00),
etc. through 6 levels of email addresses.
For comprehension purposes, here is an easy viewing chart:
1) 15(1) = 15 people ($1) = $15
2) 15(15) = 225 people ($1) = $225
3) 15(225) = 3375 people ($1) = $3375
4) 15(3375) = 50625 people ($1) = $50625
5) 15(50625) = 759375 people ($1) = $759375

As you can see, your $6.00 has multiplied exponentially. What other
opportunity that is as simple as this can cash in the way this can?!

I'm not going to say this is going to make everyone over $800,000,
but within a few WEEKS you begin to see results, thanks to the speed of
the internet!
When your name is no longer on the list, take the latest posting in
the newsgroups and begin the process again. Simply amazing...
One other tip to speed up the process even more:

You can send out your amended post (after you complete the process
and add your PAYPAL email address to the list) to the contacts you
already have in YOUR email address book! It is AMAZING how fast this works.

Be cautious though with your emailing (don't spam hundreds of people you
don't know). Combine this idea with the steps above to MAXIMIZE your
profits. I can't stress enough how this system works wonders.
There is something to be said when an idea is internationally publicized, just
make sure you take advantage of it (especially for only $6.00!)
Follow the system as described, and enjoy your PROFITS!!!

REMEMBER... HONESTY AND INTEGRITY = PROFITABILITY
YOUR NAME COULD CYCLE FOR A LONG TIME! THIS MAKES IT THE GIFT THAT
KEEPS ON GIVING.

This is excellent seed money to start or expand a business, buy your
dream home, car and pay off whatever bills you may have. Good luck!

HOW TO POST TO NEWS GROUPS?
Use Netscape or Internet Explorer and try searching for various
newsgroups (on-line forums, message boards, chat sites, discussions.)

Log on any search engine like yahoo.com, google.com, altavista.com,
excite.com, etc., then search with the subject "millionaire message
board; or; money making message board; or; employment message board;
or making discussions; or ''money making forum; or; business message
board; etc.
You will find thousands & thousands of message boards.
Click on them one by one and you will find the option 'post a new message'.
Then Post this article as a 'new message' by highlighting the text of this letter and selecting copy then paste from the edit menu. Fill in the Subject, this will be the
header that everyone sees as they scroll through the list of postings
in a particular group, click the post message button.
You're done with your first one! It only takes about 60 seconds to complete
postings on message boards after you catch on.

REMEMBER, THE MORE NEWSGROUPS YOU POST IN, THE MORE MONEY YOU WILL
MAKE!!

GOOD LUCK!!!!
